Instructions for state traffic of
ficers to enforce the automobile
license 'law requiring new plates
on ears after July 1 were issued
yesterday by Hal E. Hoss. secre
tary of state : Following issuance
of the statement. Hoss said traffic
officers would enforce the law de
spite ."Interference, of Goyernor
Julius U Meier." w .
The goTernor announced Tues
day that, he would issue executive
pardon to anyone arrested during
July on a charge of failure to
display new license plates.
The governor's - announcement
resulted In the falling oft of li
cense issuance, by the secretary of
state's office more than 75 per
cent Wednesday, Hoss stated.
Both Portland and Salem counter
stations were virtually Idle as
.'compared with previous days and
Ith previous years. Tuesday z&uo-
licenses were Issued over the
counter at Salem, Wednesday only
S00 were Issued. The average for
the first three days .of the new
lfcense year should hare been
about 2000. ,
Hoss Declares
Choice Not Ills .
Governor Meier had -previously
requested Hoss to order a respite
in the enforcement of the new li
cense law because of the depres
sion, thus enabling drivers to have
-another month In which to raise
the necessary fee. This Hoss re
fused to do, stating he had no
choice in the enforcement of law.
Stopping the license -plates now
will but postpone the expense for
the people and will cause a tre
mendous lot of extra costs and
confusion," Hoss replied.
TJp to Wednesday about 140.
000 plates had been Issued, which
Is about naif of , the, automobile
population. Th mall receipts on
Wednesday had not fallen off, but
the secretary expects this falling
off to be noted tomorrow. It may
also be necessary to close the east
side counter station In Portland If
little business is done, Hoss said.
"Enforcement of the motor ve
hicle laws as far as any office is
concerned will be carried on this
; year exactly the same a in the
vast, notwithstanding the lnter-
' ferenee of Governor Meier In
ray
: departmental operations. On Aug'
vst 1 he takes over my traffic de
partment and whether he enforces
",any laws at all or not will be
strictly up to him, but so long as
I am charged with this responsi
bility I Intend to live up to it,"
1 Hoss declared in his statement
Wednesday. k
Legislature Only
May 8nspend Law
"The eonstttutlon of Oregon
says. The operation of the laws
shall never be suspended except by
the authority of the legislature.'
4: The license laws, we will all ad
mit, work a certin hardship upon
all of us. but so long as we have
a law which says it Is illegal to
operate a car with void plates af
ter June 30 I feel that the rem
edial agency Is the legislature and
not the governor nor the secretary
of state. - I "
"With reference to the hardr
hips of certain laws the supreme
court says. In volume 79, Oregon
Reports, . it Is a very drastic
measure, and In this instance It
'my have operated harshly on de-
- serving men, but we cannot disre
gard the plain words of the law.
The only relief from It must be
found In a change of the legisla
tive enactment by that depart
ment of the government'.

A pair of very tired, wan and mo

and Wiley Post faced a battery
of newspapermen and photogra
phers at the RItz-Carlton hotel to
night with boyish shyness.
"What dav Is this?" asked
Post.
Informed It was Wednesday, he
turned to Gatty and exclaimed:
"Say Buddy, we made It didn't
we?"
Gattr merely smiled, and
thumped Post on his broad back.
A crowd of more than 500 per
sons waited for hours at the ho

were helped out of a limousine.
Another Crush of
Crowd at Hotel
Police sruards were helpless to
stem the rush of the crowd as it
surged forward to touch or shake
hands with the blrdmen. Gatty
and Post acknowledged the cheers
with waves of their hands ana
handshakes wherever possible.
Mrs. Post became separated
from the fliers In the crush and
It was some minutes before she
could be located.
''"Without hesitation, Gatty-and
Post said "Coming home was the
best part of the whole trip.
Report Much of
Flying; Was Blind
Gatty said he felt no discom
fort throughout the trip, except
for an occasional stiffening of the
musojes. - He had a great desire
to "stretch the leggs" almost con
tinuously over the last 500. miles.
"How much blind flying did
you have to do?" Post was asked.
"Practically all the. way," he
replied. "It was particularly bad
on the stretch to Nome, through
thick fog and over mountains."
Thst distance wa the "tougn-
est" In every way, Gatty added. ,
"We had a sudden nnexpiain-
able rush of oil to the motor
which had us worried for. awhile
he said. "The spark pln be
came partially fouled, but we fix
ed that at Nome.
Plana For Future
Not Considered -
"I haven't looked at my log
book yet, but I know we averaged
150 or better, probably near 1C0.
Our beet speed was over the At
lantic. We must hare been close
to 170 miles an hour or more."
Both men said they had no
nlans for the future and did not
know either when they would fly
araln soon or whether they would
accept movie or vaudeville offers.
"I look lust like a movie sniea.

ROOSEVELT FIELD, N.
July 1. (AP) Cutting
round-the-world record from
Y.. -the
El-
most 22 days to little more than,'
a week,. Wiley Post and Harold
Gatty landed at dusk en this field
which they left at dawn less than
nine days ago on an earth-girdling
race against time.
The welcome accorded them was
so boisterous that the fliers fled
the field, but only after rieaj
rlotous scenes In which police
struggled to preserve order and
fists were swung in angry alterna
tions which threatened to develop
Into a serious disturbance.
It was dusk before Post and
Gatty arrived and the west was
painted in rich pinks as the big
white plane shot with the speed
of a. giant arrow out of the sun
set. At 7:44 p. m"., E. S. T.. the
filers were first sighted and three
minutes and a half later, after
thrice circling the field with their
wing lights glowing against the
purple eastern sky, they set the
plane lightly down half a miie

Time Eight Days, -15

Elapsed time of the 16,000-mie
flight around the world, a flight
which famous aviators tonight
called the greatest achievement in
the history of aviation, was Just
eight days, 15 hours and 51 min
utes. The previous world-girdling
record, established by the German
dirigible- Graf Zeppelin two years
ago, was almost 22 days. Post and
Gatty, although they took almost
nine days to get around the world,
spent only four days, 10 hours and
eight minutes of this time in the
air. -.
Up to the time the fliers ar
rived the crowd had seemed small
compared to the great aggregation
which rushed four years ago to
cheer Lindbergh and Chamberlim
and Byrd on every possible occa
